No more laughter, singing or hugs, dying, my hearts washed in misery. Songs of yesterday now live underground. When will this pain end. Christmas was miserable. Looking at all her presents sitting in her room only brings back memories. I can't take this anymore. I only want to be with her. I'm suppose to be holding her if she's scared.

When people tell me it is going to get better and easier it does NOT make me feel better. I am terrified of losing his memory. Ever being "okay" feels like such a betraya. Anyone else feel like this?

Teresa D. - Thanks for sharing. I think you are right. Michael did not leave you. Just this "dimension".  I had a similar experience this week when during a talk at the ashrama. they were talking about the baby Jesus and how interesting that God choose to bring the message of love through a little baby. Everyone can feel the divinity in a new baby. Whether you are Christian or not, Jesus' message and example was simply to embrace love. She described all babies as still having a "trail of heaven" and how we can feel that when we hold them. It was then that I felt very deeply that yes of course, my Daniel came in with that incredible love, total innocence, beauty and divine essence, and to that he has returned. It made me feel that incredible love again through my pain and I did feel that peace also.  We will see them again and til then they are right here with us in our hearts. I think we all need to have moments of that in order to keep going.

It's just so hard to carry on without them I know. My breakdown came today after I have held it together through all the activities. Everyone says I'm doing so well and I just think of what someone said a while back ( I think it was you) - I feel like a fake. I want to scream - "no I'm not doing okay - can't you SEE the pain I'm in constantly?!" But there are those who do see and reach out and remember my boy with me and allow my pain to be. For them I am so grateful. But I just hit the wall today and am going to allow myself the release and crawl back into bed and cry it out.

And I am so grateful to each and every one of you here and feel strength from the fact that we do not walk this path alone and we can be there for those who will follow us. Thank you all. You are all in my prayers and I am sending a big cyber hug.

Yesterday I think I crossed a road.  The morning was extremely rough for me.  I couldn't help but run through Michael's last Christmas which was here with me. 

Several of his friends sent me messages which was the greatest gift I could have received.  One of his friends went on and on about what Michael meant to him and all the sudden this sense of peace came over me.

My Michael is in heaven and he won't be returning to this world but deep in my heart I know Michael did not leave me, he is right here giving me the comfort I need to make it through this.

It is the love of Michael that keeps me going.  Nothing can break that.

Dolly Brandon is still in that house and he is still listening to the music.

Connie, I am wishing you the best in finding out the truth about your son's accident. I know how important that can be as I am in the same situation...

Comment by Jesse's Mom on December 25, 2014 at 4:49pm

I went to my son's grave site yesterday and left him a small remembrance stone with these words

"If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane. I would walk right  up to Heaven and bring you back again."

I thought this is so unreal...I never thought I would have yet another child die and be visiting yet another grave site...two children dead...

Today, as I drove into to Walgreens -- I had to get out of the house --- just observed all the cars parked in the driveways, people getting out with their food and bringing gifts...and knowing that type of happiness in my life is no more...

I wish everyone on this site some small measure of peace today...I am sorry for all of us who visit this "place" and wish each one gentleness and dreams of our loved ones....

well its Christmas Day and Bo seemed happy with his presents and that's our main reason for keeping the day now... although we all want to some day feel the joy we all used to feel during the holidays... don't know if that is even remotely possible but we DO have each other and our families [although they are all too far away to celebrate with except to skype or email] Yesterday was for some reason my day to break down... then we played some music together and even Bo played his drum pad, and it felt like Brandon was there too ... he was always our 'music man'.... and once after he died I remember saying 'Brandon was always all about the music' and I felt like I 'heard' him say "I still AM, mom"... I hope so.... love you sweetheart... now and forever and forever.... miss you so much...

Oh Kim. That is so nice. I am sure he is with you. It sucks for us but they are in heaven with God totally surrounded by love!

just got back from seeing my beautiful son shawn, I let balloons go, 1 red his fav colour 1 saying loving you always and forever, then I sprinkled flowers, and butterflys and angels over him, I hope with all my heart he gets my balloons. I pray he has a wonderful Christmas with my mom, I know  without him ill never have a Christmas again.  my heart is breaking so much and my tears wont stop,
